Premieres Thursday at 7 on ABC. It looks pretty crazy, in a fun way. I've give it an hour, see how it is.

Quote:

Anthony Edwards (ER) plays Hank Galliston, a skeptic who publishes a magazine that debunks myths. However, his skepticism will be tested when his wife is kidnapped by an international terrorist who wants an antique clock she just picked up for her shop. Hank soon finds himself in the midst of an age old conspiracy that will challenge everything he believes and that has the potential to end the world as he knows it.

Read several reviews on Thursday which made it sound like the show would be awful, but I did not find it to be bad at all. The only real criticism I can level is that I thought it stumbled toward the end of the first hour. For what it is, though, I thought they did a good job, and I'll give the second hour a watch.

Unfortunately, however, it looks like it'll go the way of Last Resort (hell, it probably won't last that long). The ratings for the pilot were terrible. Like least-watched scripted pilot in ABC history terrible.

AVClub says it was a shame it wasn't more terrible. Kinds of just middles along without delivering on the crazeballs it suggests are coming.
